(AllHipHop News) For about 10 years, in terms of commercial success in Hip Hop, the rankings have been Eminem #1…and then everyone else. That continued this past week when Eminem’s eighth studio album in 14 years, The Marshall Mathers LP 2 scored the highest 1st week sales for a rapper with 792,000.

While not even half of the ridiculous 1.71 million 1st week sales its predecessor, The Marshall Mathers LP scored, Eminem’s 8th studio album has set off a string off record-breaking for the 41 year old MC. In addition to his new album being #1 on the Billboard Top 200, everyone of his eight solo studio albums has also entered the Billboard 200 simultaneously, a first for a rapper.
